A New Fractal-Based Miniaturized Dual Band Patch Antenna for RF Energy Harvesting by Sika Shrestha, Seong Ro Lee, Dong-You Choi

“…In this work, a miniaturized dual band antenna operable at 2.45 and 5.8 GHz is constructed by modifying the standard microstrip patch antenna geometry into a fractal structure. In addition to miniaturization and dual band nature, the proposed antenna also removes unwanted harmonics without the use of additional filter component. …”
